Clonezilla 64 bit is a partition and disk imaging/cloning program similar to True Image. It helps you to do system deployment, bare metal backup, and recovery.

Three types of the app are available, Clonezilla live, Clonezilla lite server, and Clonezilla SE (server edition).

Clonezilla live is suitable for single machine backup and restore. While Clonezilla lite server or SE is for massive deployment, it can clone many (40 plus!) computers simultaneously. It saves and restores only used blocks in the hard disk.

This increases clone efficiency. With some high-end hardware in a 42-node cluster, a multicast restoring at rate 8 GB/min was reported.

Features and Highlights
  • Many File systems are supported: (1) ext2, ext3, ext4, reiserfs, reiser4, xfs, jfs, btrfs, f2fs and nilfs2 of GNU/Linux, (2) FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, NTFS of MS Windows, (3) HFS+ of macOS, (4) UFS of FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD, (5) minix of Minix, and (6) VMFS3 and VMFS5 of VMWare ESX.
  • Therefore you can clone GNU/Linux, MS windows, Intel-based Mac OS, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, VMWare ESX and Chrome OS/Chromium OS, no matter its 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x86-64) OS. For these file systems, only used blocks in partition are saved and restored by Partclone. For unsupported file system, sector-to-sector copy is done by dd in the app.
  • LVM2 (LVM version 1 is not) under GNU/Linux is supported.
  • Boot loader, including grub (version 1 and version 2) and syslinux, could be reinstalled.
  • Both MBR and GPT partition formats of a hard drive are supported. It also can be booted on a BIOS or uEFI machine.
  • Unattended mode is supported. Almost all steps can be done via commands and options. You can also use a lot of boot parameters to customize your own imaging and cloning.
  • One image restoring to multiple local devices is supported.
  • The image could be encrypted. This is done with ecryptfs, a POSIX-compliant enterprise cryptographic stacked filesystem.
  • Multicast is supported in Clonezilla SE, which is suitable for massive clone. You can also remotely use it to save or restore a bunch of computers if PXE and Wake-on-LAN are supported in your clients.
  • BitTorrent (BT) is supported in the lite server, which is suitable for massive clone. The job for BT mode is done by Ezio.
  • The image file can be on local disk, ssh server, samba server, NFS server, or WebDAV server.
  • AES-256 encryption could be used to secures data access, storage, and transfer.
  • Based on Partclone (default), Partimage (optional), ntfsclone (optional), or dd to image or clone a partition. However, the app, containing some other programs, can save and restore not only partitions but also a whole disk.
  • By using another free software drbl-winroll, which is also developed by us, the hostname, group, and SID of cloned MS windows machine can be automatically changed.
Which Clonezilla Shall I Use ?

Clonezilla Live: Clonezilla live allows you to use CD/DVD or USB flash drive to boot and run clonezilla (Unicast only)

Clonezilla lite server: Clonezilla lite server allows you to use Clonezilla live to do massively cloning (unicast, broadcast, multicast, bittorrent are supported)

Clonezilla SE: Clonezilla SE is included in DRBL, therefore a DRBL server must first be set up in order to use Clonezilla to do massively cloning (unicast, broadcast and multicast are supported)

Minimum System Requirements

X86 or x86-64 processor

196 MB of system memory (RAM)

Boot device, e.g. CD/DVD Drive, USB port, PXE, or hard drive

Limitations
  • The destination partition must be equal or larger than the source one.
  • Differential/incremental backup is not implemented yet.
  • Online imaging/cloning is not implemented yet. The partition to be imaged or cloned has to be unmounted.
  • Due to the image format limitation, the image can not be explored or mounted. You can _NOT_ recovery a single file from the image. However, you still have a workaround to make it, read this.
  • Recovery Clonezilla live with multiple CDs or DVDs is not implemented yet. Now all the files have to be in one CD or DVD if you choose to create the recovery iso file.
PROS
  • Free and Open Source
  • Fast Imaging and Cloning
  • Supports Multiple File Systems
  • Highly Customizable
  • Secure Data Handling
CONS
  • Complex for Beginners
  • Limited GUI Options
  • No Incremental Backups
  • Requires Manual Setup
  • Hardware Compatibility Issues
Note: Use BurnAware to burn the ISO file to a bootable CD or use Rufus to make a bootable USB drive.

What's new in this version:

ENHANCEMENTS AND CHANGES SINCE 3.3.1-35:
- The underlying GNU/Linux operating system was upgraded. This release is based on the Debian Sid repository (as of 2026/May/17).
- Linux kernel was updated to 7.0.7-1
- Partclone was updated to 0.3.47
- Package ezio was updated to 2.0.23
- Implemented the gocryptfs mechanism for image encryption due to eCryptFS deprecation. Added options -goc/-sgoc/ and -pg/-pfg in ocs-sr and the TUI menu.
- Added a new program, ocs-cvtimg-enc, to convert encrypted images (ecryptfs to gocryptfs), decrypt, or encrypt images

Improved MDRAID support:
- Added programs ocs-mdraid-start, ocs-mdraid-stop, ocs-purge-mdraid-layout, ocs-save-mdraid-layout, and ocs-restore-mdraid-layout
- Lite server now supports MDRAID deployment
- Standardized naming conventions for MDRAID management
- Improved MDRAID stop/clean operations to prevent "busy" errors during restoration
- Added support for LVM thin provisioning
- Added b3sum to the initrd of the live system and implemented a new checksum mechanism for the live system using b3sum instead of sha256sum
- Added a menu to verify the boot medium
- Default to use XXH128 checksum (-a3) for Partclone in saving images and device-to-device cloning
- Enhanced ocs-blk-dev-info to output logical block size and improved its performance
- Language files updated: ca_ES, ja_JP.UTF-8, Brazilian Portuguese
- Added 6 new language files: cs_CZ, id_ID, nl_NL, th_TH, uk_UA, and vi_VN
- Added manuals for ocs-sr and ocs-onthefly
- Included new packages: brightness-udev, ansifilter, thin-provisioning-tools, gocryptfs, fido2-tools
- ocs-clean-disk-part-fs now runs interactively by default for improved safety
- Added a mechanism to prompt for bcdboot fix during 512n/e <-> 4kn conversions in ocs-onthefly
- Sorted Partclone-related variables by separating dd and non-dd usages (e.g., PARTCLONE_SAVE_OPT_DD_INIT)

Fixed:
- Fixed a failure in reduce_multipath_dev when acting on a whole disk with a filesystem
- Fixed a bug where the ncurses TUI was not shown when running partclone.dd in TUI mode
- Avoided duplicated outputs from virtual mapped devices (e.g., Ventoy) in ocs-blk-dev-info
- Fixed MDRAID issues: ensured arrays are only shut down during restoration, and implemented udev race condition prevention
- Skip thin pool data containers when saving, checking, or converting
- Fixed a bug in ocs-pt-size-from-sf regarding device name matching
- Fixed a typo in ocs-restore-mbr
- Improved ocs-chkimg to skip checking partition tables for MDRAID devices
- Opentracker whitelist access problem
